"What begins as a poem written on the occasion of a birthday evolves into an all-consuming search - for meaning, for the rest of the story, for the often elusive connections between words and things, ourselves and others. Combining wit, style, and with nods to everyone from Basho to Rainer Maria Rilke, "Suzanne" to Bananarama, Hydra and the Bananas of Leonard Cohen proves, once again, that (in the words of fellow poet Lawrence Durrell), life is far too serious not to be taken lightly."--Jacket.
